As seen on the comments Zekton is not GPL.
The creator is R. Larabie and copyrighted is under Typodermic. It costs $0. So it's a "free" font. You can download it here: new.myfonts.com/fonts/typodermic/zekton/
I downloaded a big amount of free fonts here with only sign up with a single email address. :)
Only Zekton Regular costs $0. The rests cost $30 per each. :(
Hi, i havent been able to install this fonts, i created a file called ".font" the files is in "home/usr/" and pasted the uncompressed file in it (.font), then i typed this at the terminal "fc-cache -f -v" but when i go to appearance preferences, they dont appear to be installed. so if any one can help =D im a newbie xD hahaha
Well...dont know if this is the right place to put this but here goes...
I installed this font and made it as default on my kde wm...and it works great, but using opera and accesing the ubuntuforums.org show me a corrupted-like font.Every other site is showing ok thou...can anyne else check??
It's probably a mistake I made, but ...just in case :)
P.S. Good job on the fonts!!!
Opera on linux is not something you wanna get involved with , it almost drawn me crazy with all the font problems , now i'm on Firefox 3 and it's a very advanced browser , with no problems (at least for me :) ) i recommend it www.getfirefox.com
hello
i just started using this font today, but i´m sure i´ll never get smthn else!!
cool, but useful and everything else but boring!
great work!

Not only is the license not the GPL, the license is not a free software license (therefore it is not GPL-compatible).
The license blurb on this website should clearly indicate that derivative works are disallowed, commercial distribution is disallowed, and therefore this software is non-free.
This begs for the question: why is this site carrying non-free software?

Hey man, I love this font type... okey, this is the only one what supports the hungarian langauge (letters...), but it's great. ;)

Can not sign this really. I prefer Opera and dislike Iceweasel. But we do not make a flamewar here;) greetings and merry xmas Seraphyn
Man opera is so much better than FF.
Nice font, great job, thanks !
It comes in the opensuse distribution dvd... doesn't it means it is free someway?

it looks really good :)
The fonts are not Licenced under the GPL. Read the RED_ME.TXT file. The Licence in this file is in no way similar to the GPL.
Licence, licenSed :) But yes, this should be rectified!

I use Zekton for years now as my default font on my system :)
Que mané...
